For this design, I felt that a thicker yarn knit at a tight gauge made the leaf and cable motif at the yoke really stand out. If you happen to knit loosely, you may find that you are more easily able to achieve the same gauge by substituting a thinner yarn such as a sport weight for the larger sizes and a fingering weight for the smaller sizes.Remember that although the thickness of yarn is a personal preference, the most important thing is that you are able to match the pattern gauge.

Since all of our Coastal Kids patterns are available in a wide range of sizes,

Big Sister has a matching Little Oak of her very own!

Here is the size 4 on my very very petite six year old daughter. :)

It's not often that I come across a sweater pattern that can be knit for both of them and myself as well!

Our family will be enjoying this design for years to come and I hope that yours does too!
